I think we don't need to do a quiz about we have to study in the UK or the USA. Sometimes you think that you want to study in the USA or the UK.Just do what you like.Not depend on the quiz.It doesn't help you when you're like the U.K and the quiz said that the USA may be the best for you to study.But that's my opinion.But if i have a choice to study,i'll choose the U.K.I love this place.

Hey guys this may be a good quiz for the persons who are totally black in their minds that where to go. But one thing is sure that we all have some kind of priorities set already in our mind. I am currently studying in Australia but i lived in United Kingdom for 3years and i finished my Advanced Diploma In Business Administration in London. I love that place the reasons are:
An exciting opportunity to meet the people from all around the world.
Their education is recognized worldwide.
A great chance to see the new places so many in England, Scotland,Wales and Northern Ireland without having the visa.
Also an opportunity to explore the Europe as well with Schenengen Visa Which is quiet easy to get.
The last but not the least is quiet easy to get a job as a student while studying and also easy to get a job after the studies.
So we should all think about United Kingdom as our destination.
Thanks and good luck to every one.

I think according to me USA is better opportunity especially for engineers and sciences after new american law has came in.. so lots of extra and field job in US makes it better deal then UK. Above all study in US looks more practical, and that's its plus point. While UK and India has same education pattern.. Good job studylink!

I wish to study in UK.

i want usa

Hey what's up all? Am studying in Africa presently, but if i intend persueing my graduate studies i will,opt for US. It is a free land, and is cheaper relative to the UK where the fees would my tripled what is equivalent in the US. All of us should move to the US instead of going to the UK.Staying in the US is fun compared to UK (v just so serious and strict.

I think this quiz is interesting. But it only talk about general. I like to study in the US. It's really difficult with me. because of main reason, i have enough monney!

this is very very interesting, but as for me i want to achieve my aim so if i get UK or USA is cool for.

if u are ready to learn and achieve ur aim then i think u should not say i prefer Uk or Usa


thanks

my choice is USA

I am confused... Where to go I have heard that USA study is easier dn UK. But the problem is I want to be closer to my relatives.... that's why either USA or UK. I'd say I'd like to go there, where I can make more money with lower expense.

I have never been any of them and my choise is UK .

I wish studying in UK. It doesn't matter much if it is USA. All that matters is the coaching and environment.

I will like to study in the USA if there education system be flexible as to the UK.I have been to the UK and itis pretty exciting to study there but in USA though i have never been there it extremely difficult to obtain a visa even if you have genue documents you may turn down.Any way i will like to study in USA as a result of the presence of my family if i have a visa.

Hi,
First i extend my profound thanks to Study Link,then i should point out that my field of interest is studing in UK!

ALL THE BEST,

Hussin ali karimi

thanks all of you specially study link.i wish to study abroad,in any of these countries.

I studied both sites of the atlantic. Choosing which country is depending on what your needs are. In UK, you hardly get to see your personal tutor or your professor who is busy for his/her books to get published(the system required them to do this otherwise, they will get kicked out sooner or later). You do not get any support from your university, plus networking after graduation does not exist, but now Brit Unis are following the footstepts of US alumni style of networking. In US, Library service: inculding interlibrary loan are the best for free of charge, you can print out 4000 pages for free. Scholarships: you name it; summer scholarship, stipend for internship, research...etc. You alwyas get support from your professors and departmental staff who are always there to help you. Activities on campus are so wonderful that you do not want to graduate and leave the uni. So once you get your foot at the door of US university, things will fall in place as long as you are prepared to work hard for your studies. If you want to go for PhD, almost all the Unis provide scholarship for PhD students.

I have never been in UK or USA but the reason for going to U.K is i want to meet the people of all the world and the level of study in UK is attractive.
